Product Description
A fragrant, easy to grow, evergreen lavender collection that will give outstanding performance in the garden and has everything that you expect from this much-loved perennial.
Suitable for all garden conditions, positions and temperatures, lavender is drought-tolerant, winter hardy and evergreen for year-long interest – perfect for anyone to grow and ideal to create a scented hedge or border
The silvery leaves and vibrant blooms are packed with a heady fragrance and will give you sweeping drifts of scent and colour from early to mid-summer.
As well as putting on a show for gardener everywhere, the combination of showy flowers and fragrance is an absolute magnet for bees, butterflies and other beneficial garden insects, which will have your garden buzzing with life and makes a fabulous choice for pollinating the garden.
A Mediterranean native, Lavender is ideal for many situations, and all varieties are ideal in pots of light soil that drains well. Compact, hardy, drought-tolerant and incredibly easy to grow, lavenders are perfect for growing either side of doorways, pathways and entrances or for the patio where you’ll be able to catch their magnificent scent! Once established, Lavender is extremely drought tolerant, easy to grow and needs very little maintenance - you can even cut the stems to make fragrant indoor dried displays!
Supplied as a set of 12 plug plants in 4 varieties, ready to pot up and grow on:
4 x Lavender 'Hidcote' and 3 x 'Munstead' both classic, hardy English Lavenders, which will transform your garden with colour and incredible fragrance. They’ll stay compact, reaching 45-60cm (1-2ft) tall. Both blooms and leaves are fragrant, and you can even cut the stems to make fragrant indoor dried displays! Hidcote is a deeper violet colour when compared to the lighter Munstead.
4 x Lavender 'Ellagance Snow' is another fabulous variety of classic lavender with silvery leaves and white blooms. Slightly more compact than others, it will reach approx. 30cm (1ft) x 30cm (1ft).
1 x Lavender 'Rosea' as its name suggests bears rose-pink flowers above silvery leaves and makes a great contract when planted with other varieties. Slightly taller, will reach 75cm (2.5ft) x 75cm (2.5ft).

Plant Information
Top Tips
In late summer, clip the plants back lightly after the flowers have faded. Cut the stems back by a few inches, but not so far that the stems are bare of live foliage, and plants will then have time to produce new shoots before winter dormancy.
Care Guide
- Give your plugs a little attention on arrival - unpack them immediately, and either mist them or stand them in water for an hour - they may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post, but they’ll quickly recover.
- When you're ready to pot on, use a good quality, multi-purpose compost, and fill 3-4in pots (7-10cm).
- This drought-tolerant plant thrives in a sunny border, container, herb or gravel gardens.
- Best planted between April and May when the soil is warming up, lavender thrives in most free-draining soils in full sun. Heavier soils should have some grit added to improve drainage and to open them up.
- Space plants 90cm (3ft) apart, or if growing a hedge, 30cm (1ft) apart or, 45cm (18in) for larger cultivars.
- Lavender can be grown in large pots, 30-40cm (1ft-16in) diameter, using a multipurpose or loam-based compost such as JI No 3, with some extra coarse grit, (up to 30%), to improve drainage, along with some controlled release fertiliser granules.
- Ensure that the compost is regularly watered in summer, although for improved cold tolerance, kept on the dry side during winter by standing in a cold greenhouse or in the rain shadow of walls.
- Trim lightly in mid to late summer, removing spent flower heads. Prune again in early spring, before flowers appear removing about 2.5cm of growth.

The plants and bulbs I order from Garden Bargains always arrive beautifully packed, and the plants are healthy and ready to be either potted on or planted in the garden. Yes, I will definitely order more plants and recommend Garden Bargains to friends.Product:
They are very strong little plants and are doing well. Lavender is my favourite plant, I love the scent and the fact that they are evergreen is an added bonus.

Efficient service ? but the Lavender plants were of poor quality. They were ?free? and I only paid for the delivery but only two out of the twelve plants are showing signs of surviving. So they worked out to be two expensive lavender plants!Product:
Efficient service but poor quality plants as only two out of twelve plants have survived.

Lavender plants were virtually dead on arrival, the same as the tomato plants and verbena plants also bought. TLC did not revive them unfortunately, so total waste of money.
